EARLIER ILLINOIS 

Part I. 

"The Masque of Illinois" is an attempt, believed to be the first of 
its kind ever made, to interpret by means of symbol and allegory the 
245 years (1673-1918) of the history of the Illinois Country. It is, 
therefore, a closely written synopsis of such history, no event having 
marked influence upon the development of the State and its people 
being omitted. 

Illinois is first shown surrounded by her Prairies, Rivers, Forests, 
and Flowers, which may be taken as standing for our natural re- 
sources. Upon this primitive and idyllic peace Fear intrudes, accom- 
panied by a band of Indians, who dance War and Squaw Dances. They 
are frightened away by the coming of the French (1673). Joliet, 
La Salle, and Tonty, are shown as symbolizing certain of the gifts the 
French brought to us; religion, the most valuable of these, being indi- 
cated by the procession following of the first missionaries. Fathers 
Marquette, Hennepin, Ribourde, and Membre, with their Indian con- 
verts, singing the "Vexilla Regis" to the old monkish air actually used 
in that day. The gayety of France is also shown in a little dance, 
which is interrupted by the coming of the British (1765), who fly their 
old flag with the Crosses of St. George and St. Andrew in the place of 
the French Lilies. The British are routed in turn by the Virginia 
frontiersmen (1778) then in alliance with France. 

The bordermen sing "The Virginian Song," contemporary in both 
words and music, and bring in the Pioneer Maidens to dance the 
"Virginia Reel" with them, indicating the nature of our first American 
settlers, bringing with them Virginia herself, our first American ruler, 
who in turn introduces America, for M'hom "Hail Columbia" is sung, 
in reference to the cession of the Illinois Country to the Nation (1787). 
She drives Fear, Tyranny, and Hate far from the scene, that Love, 
Freedom, and Justice may take up their abode with us. With these 
as sponsors, America crowns Illinois with the crown of Statehood 
(1818), and the scene concludes with the singing of "Fair Illinois": 

Fair Illinois So sliall we stand 

Thine every joy One kindly band 

Of great endeavor ! In blest comnivmion 

Our hearts unite Of mind and soul 

In bonds of light Made glad and whole 

With thine own heart for ever ! In Freedom's sacred Union ! 



ILLINOIS STATEHOOD 

Pakt II. 

The Centennial Hymn, "Our Illinois," is sung and Illinois is shown 
once more at the beginning of her independent career as a sovereign 
State of the Union, saying: 

The beauty of youth is mine, and riches more than gold ; 
My stalwart sons and daughters shall bring me wealth untold ; 
Woodland and plain are mine ; but better than loam and tree 
Stout hearts and visioned eyes to keep my people free. 

A maiden comes bringing Slavery, introduced by the French long 
before, who is expelled, standing for Governor Coles' successful fight 
against the attempt to make this a slave State (1823). The Dance and 
Song of Illinois Boys and Girls, for the immigration which flocked hither 
is next, and the welcoming of Lafayette, who was received at Kaskaskia 
and Shawneetown (1825). The beginning of the commercial mining 
of coal and the breaking plow is briefly suggested (1830), and the 
Blackhawk War (1832) by a repetition of the War Dance and Squaw 
Dance, followed by the expulsion of the Indians from our territory 
(1833). The building of canals and railways is symbolized, before 
Illinois rejects the bribe of Repudiation (1842-44), and of Polygamy, 
first proclaimed by Joseph Smith at Nauvoo, with the ensuing expulsion 
of the Mormons (1846). In a vision Illinois commemorates the gal- 
lantry of our soldiers in the war with Mexico, and the Illinois 
Colleges founded before 1861 celebrate themselves and the spread of 
education in the State in the preceding decade. Then comes the Civil 
War, the panegyric of Illinois being interrupted by the mourning of the 
Illinois Company for its heroic dead, broken by Illinois, who com- 
mands, in what is perhaps the most eloquent passage of the Masque, 
as follows: 

My noble sons, my noble slain, I mourn ; 
Mourn with me, kneel and mourn my sons a while. 
Now lift your heads my children, seek the skies 
And look with level eyes upon the sun. 
For yours the deathless voice of loyalty 
That is my Douglas ; all the glory lit 
By my indomitable Grant tender 
Of heart to vanquished brethren ; aye, and yours 
And mine the wistful splendor of the man 
Who is mankind bound up in one strong soul 
Compassionate my LINCOLN. So give praise ! 

An Alleluia follows for those who yield their lives in Freedom's 
cause. The return of peace, the Chicago Fire (1871) and its dance, are 
followed by a prologue speaking the lapse of time. The World's 
Colunibian Exposition (1893) is indicated by the Hymn of the Nations, 
foreshadowing the Great War, the words of which are: 

The Nations come in greeting The future glooms before them — 

Upon the New World's birth What will its dark days bring? 

In peace and happy meeting Sliall Freedom hover o"er them. 

From all the ends of earth; Or crawl tliey to a king? 

They come by joy attended. Some put their trust in battle 

The Nations great and small. In armies and tlie sword, 

The Nations weak and splendid : Men sent to death like cattle : 

Have mercy on them all ! Have mercy on them. Lord ! 

The autocrat and tyrant 

The Armored hands of Might, 
Against the world conspirant 

What care they for the Right? 
Our soldiers and our seamen 

Some day shall rise as men 
To leave a world of Freemen : 

God keep and guard them then ! 

And the curtain falls. 



ILLINOIS AND WAR 

Pakt III. 

The scene shows the throne of Illinois, with the Altar of War and 
Hope embellished with the insignia of the great American War 
Charities, upon it the great seven Lights of Battle ready for lighting. 
The Illinois Counties come in singing the first stanza of "America and 
Right," followed bj' Illinois herself, perplexed and in deep trouble. She 
sends for her ancient counsellors. Justice, Love, and Freedom, who 
advise her at last to resolve her doubts regarding the war that is forcing 
itself upon her by calling back from her past the soldiers from her 
previous wars, with their women. In obedience the six Lights of Battle 
are lighted, and the old glories revived in the persons of men and 
women from (1) the Revolutionary War, (2) the War of 1812, (3) the 
Blackhawk War, (4) the War with Mexico, (5) the Civil War, and 
(6) the War with Spain. Each band testifies that its fighting and self- 
sacrifice led to greater freedom for Illinois and for the world. 

To the throne then come the old friends, France, our first ruler; 
Italy, who gave us Tonty, the first white settler on our soil; Belgium, 
who sent us Father Ribourde from Flanders, our protomartyr; and 
Britain, our second ruler. Illinois welcomes them, and the other 
Nations on the side of Right come in w'ith their banners, and are sworn 
to make an end of war. Illinois, hesitant no longer, herself lights the 
seventh light. At the last the slightly adapted chorus of the Greeks 
before Marathon being sung in translation from "The Persians" of 
^schylus: 

Strike, O ye sons of the West for your lives. 

Freemen are ye ! 
Strike for your lioines, for your children and wives, 

Bend not the knee ! 
Strike for your God and the shrines He has blest ! 
Strike for "the graves where your forefathers rest ! 
Liberty Victory ride from the West — 

Strike, and be free ! 

With the singing of "The Star-Spangled Banner" by the audience, 
the Masque is ended. 

Wallace Rice, Author.
